Fire Door Installation by town in Tyne and Wear

Fire Door Installation in Tyne and Wear: questions

Can you fit a fire door into the existing frame?

Sometimes, if the frame is sound, compatible with the new leaf and the leaf's evidence allows it. Often a complete doorset is cheaper over the door's life and easier to evidence.

What is the difference between a fire door and a fire doorset?

A fire door often means just the leaf. A doorset is the complete assembly, leaf, frame, seals and hardware, tested and supplied together. Doorsets remove much of the guesswork from installation and are usually the better choice for replacements.

Does regulation 10 apply to buildings in Tyne and Wear?

Yes, if the building is a multi-occupied residential building with storeys over 11 metres. Tyne and Wear is in England, so the quarterly communal door checks and annual flat entrance door checks apply to those buildings.

Do you work in occupied buildings in Tyne and Wear?

Yes. Inspections and repairs in Tyne and Wear can be carried out in occupied flats, schools, care homes and workplaces, with doors kept closable at all times.
